Events Management Careers

90% of our graduates are in work or further study, within six months of finishing their degree.

Whether you want to organise mammoth music festivals or become a charity fundraiser, we’ll work with you throughout your degree to make sure you’re perfectly primed for your career in events.

We’re proud of our graduate employment numbers. They speak for themselves – a testament to the benefits of our contemporary yet industry-focused degree. A degree that ensures you’re getting hands-on experience by planning, promoting and executing events before you even graduate. A degree that encourages you to travel the world to deepen your understanding of the events industry. And a degree that’s tailored to make sure you graduate with the knowledge, skills and attributes employers want.

What’s more, our course gives you the skills and experience to start up your own successful business. Alex Ludlam set up Student Shopping UK following a real-life, final year assignment – in which he saw the opportunity to organise shopping centre events that were tailored specifically for students.

With the events industry in the UK and abroad growing at a rapid pace, the job you want is out there. And we’ll help you get it.

Our graduates develop a valuable set of skills that employers – and clients – are looking for. Skills that can be easily transferred to other careers, too. Throughout the course, you’ll become adept at:

problem solving

creative thinking

presentation of data

communication

teamwork

negotiation

networking.

Which means you’ll be in the best position possible to pursue the career of your dreams – whether it’s in events management or a related profession. As well as event managers and coordinators, our graduates have become marketing assistants, research executives, revenue analysts and more.
